These Homes ask the gift of one day’s work from every one, young and old, for some Orphans Home in any of these States. $ TOO,OOO will be expected this year for the needy orphans.

Speer Continues to Receive Strong Endorsements for Re- Election to Office of Treasurer Perhaps no man seeking office was ever given more unanimous support from the Press of the State than is being accorded Hon, W. J. Speer, who is asking the voters of Georgia to put him in charge of affairs at the State Treasurer’s office. This gentleman served the State in this capacity for twenty years to the complete and entire satis faction to all, If the Press of Georgia is really powerful, indications are that Mr. Speer will be returned to the office of State Treasurer, for from every section of the State comes Press endorsements and commendations Here are a few of the many comments gleaned from Georgia papers. From Clinch County News: Hon. W. J. Speer, candidate for State Treasurer, enjoys looking back upon a clean, spotless and uncriticised twenty year record in public office, which to us is the strongest, most forceful argument that can be brought to bear touch ing his competency and his wor thiness. We are as willing for him ter serve us now as we were when, he, as a Confederate sol dier, took up his gun, went to the front, and bared his breast to the enemy, in defense of our property and our homes. From Cleveland Courier: Mr. W. J. Speer, candidate for State Treasurer. He filled the of fice for many years, and if an ex cellent record in the discharge of official duties is what the people waut in official, then this old Con federate Veteran moct assuredly merits your ballot. From the Lumpkin Independent; Hon. W. J. Speer has large ex perience in the administration of the office of the State Treasurer, and has proven himself a capable, vigilant and efficent custodian of the State’s resources, and the peo ple of Georgia could do no better than to elect him to the position again.
